Embodiment 1

[0030] Example 1: figure 1 The present invention provides a flowchart of a method for obtaining server device information, which is applied to BIOS and includes the following steps:

[0031] S1, acquiring the first information of a device in the server;

[0032] S2. According to the device type of the device, determine the IPMI command and transmission format corresponding to the device type, and convert the first information into the second information of the transmission format;

[0033] S3, sending the IPMI command and the second information to the BMC in sequence.

[0034] The application environment of the present invention can be a domestic platform (such as Godson), or an imported platform (Intel's x86 platform), and the platform framework can be, but not limited to, an x86 platform or an Arm platform.

[0035] The device type of the device in the present invention may be, but not limited to, CPU, memory, hard disk and PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect, periphera...

Embodiment 2

[0046] Example 2: figure 2 The present invention provides a flow chart of a method for obtaining server device information, which is applied to BMC and includes the following steps:

[0047] S1, in response to receiving the IPMI command and the second information, determine the device type and transmission format corresponding to the second information according to the IPMI command;

[0048] S2. Extract the first information from the second information according to the transmission format;

[0049]S3. Store the device type and the first information in a storage device of the BMC.

[0050] The invention provides a BMC which cooperates with the BIOS and can read the equipment information sent by the BIOS, so that the equipment information of the server can be obtained without the help of an operating system.

[0051] Based on the same inventive concept, BIOS, BMC and server are also provided in the embodiment of the present invention, because the principle of solving problems...

Embodiment 3

[0052] Example 3: image 3 Provide a kind of framework schematic diagram of BIOS for the present invention, comprise following module:

[0053] An acquisition module, configured to acquire the first information of a device in the server;

[0054] The transformation module is used to determine the IPMI command and transmission format corresponding to the equipment type according to the equipment type of the equipment, and convert the first information into the second information of the transmission format;

[0055] The sending module is configured to send the IPMI command and the second information to the BMC in sequence.

Abstract

The invention relates to the field of computers, and provides a method for acquiring equipment information of a server, which is applied to a BIOS (Basic Input Output System) and comprises the following steps: acquiring first information of equipment in the server; determining an IPMI command and a transmission format corresponding to the equipment type according to the equipment type of the equipment, and converting the first information into second information in the transmission format; and sequentially sending the IPMI command and the second information to the BMC. According to the methodprovided by the invention, the equipment information is acquired by utilizing the function of acquiring the equipment information of the existing BIOS, the BIOS and the BMC appoint to correspondinglytransmit the IPMI command and the data format of one equipment type, and through the commands and the formats, the BIOS can send the equipment information to the BMC and can be decoded, so that the equipment information can be sent to a terminal in a network through BMC Web; therefore, the equipment information of the server can be remotely acquired in the BIOS environment.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of computers, and in particular to a method for acquiring device information of a server, a BIOS, a BMC and a server. Background technique [0002] A server is a type of computer that runs faster, loads more heavily, and is more expensive than a normal computer. The server provides computing or application services for other clients (such as personal computers, smart phones and other terminals, and even large-scale equipment such as train systems) in the network. The server has high-speed CPU (central processing unit, central processing unit) computing power, long-term reliable operation, powerful I / O (Input input / Output output) external data throughput and better scalability. [0003] The server mainly has two functions: one is to respond to the service request of the terminal and process it. When we surf the Internet, it is impossible to directly connect the network to the Internet. We all need to connect...
